  1. Is it contract brewed in Japan or shipped there?
  2. It is correct that it had nothing to do with this situation or how he was running the school at all. I will let that come out on it’s own. Jack will do a great job at Hill. Beth will be a great trusted figure to right the ship at murchison.
  3. Aren’t they making uncle Billy’s too?
  4. Murchison principal resigned today.
  5. She’s good
  6. If I’m at home I almost always watch. Skipping tonight. It’s not because I don’t care. It’s because no matter how terrible he is, he won’t lose a single supporter. What he says has become completely insignificant.
  7. Gotta get him away from those 18 year old Thai girls to solve this mystery.
  8. I came here to post almost exactly this but from the elementary perspective. It at least attempts to help the kids conceptualize what they are doing to numbers instead of following steps with no real understanding. It’s not perfect and makes some things more complicated than they need to be. Overall, I think it’s a benefit and my school scores well using it. I know how these threads go and won’t be back.
  9. Hat creek was selling strange land for $1 on thursdays. It was overpriced.
  10. I’m seeing lots of Zilker love these days. I think it’s catching on. Never had a problem with Lazarus. Thought it was decent, run of the mill, craft beer in a cool spot. I want to like 4th tap because I like their apprentice program, their tap room, and their location is good for me. Just can’t find a beer remotely drinkable to me.

    Steak

    People always question my opinion but I consistently get the best steaks at flemings. Never had a bad experience. Full disclosure, I have not been Jeffrey’s or 3 forks.
  12. 4th Tap in Austin. Running walker in the Houston area (Richmond).
  13. So I take it he’s going to provide districts adequate funding to raise teacher salaries? Nah. It’s just another shot at 1. Women 2. The teaching profession by saying the smart ones left.
  14. It’s has made it into my rotation for sure. 4th Tap, adelberts, and circle have been dropped. Sucks because they are much closer to home.
  15. I used to go in there once a month and try anything new/interesting/good they had. After several months with nothing to keep me interested, I stopped going. There are so many breweries in the area now. I know we have all heard the stats that some low % of beer sold is craft and overall sales are up year after year, plenty of room for growth. It’s all true and craft will continue to grow, but I think we are at the point that we see some closures and not just an endless stream of new openings.

    Pizza

    How is desano? I get reviews ranging from “not the best in town but really good” to “its terrible, I’ll never go back”.
  17. Like many others, I am getting a little tired of torchys....but the scallywag will have me back. One of my favs.
  18. Out on booker.
  19. They are a decent taproom away from making their current location successful and I think a move to the boonies would doom them. They need to copy ABW and the smaller guys in the are need to band together to (better) promote brewery crawls.
  20. You can also take AP classes at any high school and avoid some of the other stuff. Middle school is what you have to trouble shoot. I mostly know Lamar parents and they are happy.
  21. My favorite is addendum behind ad hoc. Ridiculously juicy with great flavor. A plate of that chicken on a picnic table with a bottle of wine made about a mile down the road is perfection for me.
  22. Nobody is getting expelled for vaping, buying vape pens, etc. It’s either just a rumor or there is much more to the story.
  23. I’m an elementary administrator in aisd. I can’t say I’ve ever left an email or phone call unreturned for more than 24 hours unless it was a weekend. That’s pretty much the standard for all of my elementary colleagues. Middle school is a different ballgame. Its tricky to be as responsive as possible and at the same time prepare parents for what middle school is like. Not an excuse to not be responsive but they are dealing with real stuff like drug use on campus, sending kids to alternative school, murderers???, etc. Not suggesting this about anybody on this thread but a lot of parents require significant hand holding over every minor issue. I give them that but middle school is like ripping the bandaid off for those parents. The transition is not gradual at all.
  24. If their competitors open up then they will realistically have to as well. The theory goes that they will sell a set amount of booze in a week. Doing it over 6 days is easier and more profitable than 7. Same with car dealers. I say fuck the nanny state and let them compete.
